<p><b>Overview</b></p><blockquote>


Billboards are 3D planes (composed of 2 triangles) which always face the <a href="../camera/index.html">camera</a>. 
Billboards are useful to quickly render a high number of <a href="../particle/index.html">elements</a>, such as rain, snow, 
trees, vegetation or any particle-based effects. <a href="../engine3d/initengine3d.html">InitEngine3D()</a> 
must be called successfully before using any billboard functions. 
<br>
<br>
Billboards are added to billboard groups, which are collections of similarly 
sized and positioned billboards, so that they may be displayed.
